Breaking News: Brady on Pats Injury Report!

It's been ongoing since 2004, I believe.

If this was an attempt at humor, I'm not laughing....but you're still way funnier than Dane Cook.

You see, it's now 11:40 at night and I need to finish a paper for school tomorrow (not that I really care that much, cuz I'm a second semester senior and we don't work). So I don't want to go to bed without it done, because then I'd have to BS something in a hurry tomorrow morning. Therefore, while procrastinating, I got a little idea for an article, and it probably does suck, but it was way better to write this, than to write my paper on the string theory (like I give a shit).

I did it despite your comment, not because of your comment.

Yeah, week 2 or 3 of 2001.

This statement confuses me.

Less to do of screwing the media as it has to do with the media's need to make up news......and the fact that they are stupid and gullible.

It's really just Belichick's way of showing how easy it is to not play by the rules and give NOTHING away on the injury report. At this point not even the idiots in the media really believe that Brady has an actual injury to his shoulder.

the tone was towards BB, not to Bobbyjim. It's just the most rediculous thing in the world to have a QB listed with a sore shoulder

That's sorta the point. IIRC, 3 or 4 years ago an opponent listed many of their stars as injured -- when they had every intention of playing -- just to screw with Belichick. So ever since, he's listed Brady as being injured.

I remember the week after that game that 30 or so Pats were listed on the injury report as probable. The NFL was not amused.

He's played in 126 games.

C) Trade Cassel to the Bears for Brian Urlacher and Devin Hester.

I'd do that 100 times over, give the pats another good LB and a sick KR

Halas Hall might be dumb, but not that dumb.

If Tom Brady was hurt and didn't play in the Super Bowl yet the Pats still won... Well if I WAS Tom Brady I would move to another team to prove that I am a god and that the reason I am so good isn't because I played with amazing receivers and the best offensive line ever created in the NFL. Maybe Tom would like it in Chicago?

Keep the wrist locked into place. You can even wrap it. Only move with the elbow. Take long, slow, gulps. I too suffered that injury last year.

Damn, I just agreed with something you just wrote Tyrone Briggs. The injury list is stupid. What's the point with it? Why would the opposing team inform the other team of who and where the players injuries are? That's just plan dumb. If I was a coach I would put every starting player on it with left testicular sprain/strains.

If I was Tom Brady right now I'd cover myself with a full body cast. And start smoking and carrying a 40 oz.

I thought that when I first saw that, and actually the injury list gag came to mind too. I think that is at least as possible as Brady actually being injured.

Did Wade Philips have no class when he kept it a secret whether TO would start? How about Tom Coughlin in week 17 not saying if he would rest players or not? Or how about EVERY SINGLE NHL coach in the Stanley Cup playoffs? How come when Belichick does it it's because he's classless. And when other coaches do it, they're crafty?

Perhaps read the whole statement next time. "ONE OF THE MANY REASONS." You see, that alone would be fine, but it is just another in a long list of BB thinking he has no obligation to follow any sort of social rules or protocol. If he wants to be a dick fine, but don't say he's being picked on. He seems to avoid any sort of traditional human interaction whenever possible. Maybe lack of class is the wrong way to put it, but like I have said before he comes off as a smug prick most of the time. It's not his job to be liked, but it is his job to fill out injury reports and do press confrences where he is expected to be mildly open and truthfull. As we have seen this year, he can be neither. Guess what, not being truthfull on the injury report is...thats right, CHEATING. But hey it's ok, its just a little cheating and other coaches do it. How many times does BB get to flip the proverbial bird at the NFL fans before someone can call him an jerkoff and you don't come running with all of your blind love to defend him.

Blind love? What about your blind hate? Calling him classless, a jerkoff, and a prick because he doesn't say anything that the media would be able to twist or skew is ridiculous.

Have you ever listened to an NFL press conference? The questions asked are typically stupid, and/or very basic. Somebody asks what he thought of Brady's performance, so he'll say that Brady had a good game. What else would you have him say?

I remember after losing to the Colts a few years ago, somebody asked him why he tried an onside kick in the 2nd quarter. "Because we wanted to get the ball back" was his answer. How is stuff like that dishonest or inappropriate? It may come off as rude, but the question was so stupid, and so simple, so why not give a simple answer?

And when someone asks him about the other team's players, he only has nice things to say. Yeah, what an asshole.

Belichick's injury reports aren't some attempt to say "F you" to football fans. It's his demonstrating that coach's lie on the reports, thereby making them useless. I remember when the Pats played the Falcons and Vick was listed as probable in order to boost day of game ticket sales, even though the Falcons knew he wouldn't play.

If Belichick really wanted to screw with the fans and other teams, he'd list players other than Brady, and he'd list them as something other than probable.

Keep my blind hate out of this.

Damn you Frugolf! After I try to help you you turn around and stab me in the back. Now what am I suppose to do. I hope your high wrist sprain never heals and you never drink a nice cold beer again :) You can also get like 2 foot straws at certain party stores. Just get the wife to keep brining you new beers, set them down next to you on a table, insert straw and you never have to pick up that beer again. Hope that helps.

Bill Belichick obviously doesn't think much of rules period.
